He might not be an excellent at-the-rim defender, but his sheer motor, hustle, and determination made up for it, and won him the award. Wood does not play with the same energy and fire and actually is lazy on that end IMHO. It's a big reason he's still a FA.
Good point about his motor; it's why he was successful with less talent. Even with his motor, he was a negative defender. Point isn't a comparison with Wood, it's that an offensive minded big can be a great 6th man. Unless he is paired with a DPOY big, Wood's ideal role is 6th man, IMO.
